Irukere Ifa is what the swoosh and outer sock line material is representing. A tool that was used for celebrations and the handle made out of leather and beads.
I think the "grown man Jordans" are best exemplified by the AMM line. Many of my own purchases are along the lines of more neutral tones or muted colors, which may be the basis for what we're talking about. In other words, pairs that don't look like they were meant for sports or kids. I'm currently at a place where super bright colors and heavily multi-colored kicks (in most cases) hit me like more of a kids sneaker. I typically avoid those kinds of kicks unless the colors are muted. I think going for subtlety and letting the overall outfit work together well is more of a flex than just a hype pair of sneakers.
This is a great take! I'm on my grownish clean vibe lately. Got the desert elephants 3sthe washed blks, and these. And hopefully the palomino 1s when they drop. The fits I have for these crafts are killer
bruh these were on the SNKRS app in France and to this day they're still sitting there in All Sizes. People really don't mess with Jordan 1s here anymore. More power to everyone else then !
Honestly the weird material looks like cork. Theyre like champagne 1s 😂😂Some people may say the overall look is unappealing but I ordered from Union Los Angeles last week lol
This channel helped me pull the trigger on the Air Jordan 3 Desert Elephant. Put some sail white laces in them, and they look INCREDIBLE. Love them. Definitely one of my all time favorite pairs of sneakers. Love your channel! Thank you both! 😎🤙🏻
Damn, they on Nike now for 90 $ here in EU but I just boght the air Jordan 2 for 80 $ and I have more then 40 pairs of shoes... but its really hard not to pull the trigger when discounted 😂
I got these off of the leather quality alone. I also love Sail so it only made sense. Nike went cheap on the laces, really missed an opportunity to put some “pop” on these.
I've been waiting for this review to see your thoughts! I got mine last week for below retail. They leather is the best of any of my J1s. Man.. the fits I have for this...too clean!
Nothing about Nigeria on EU SNKRS: Air Jordan 1 Sail and Pale Vanilla €189.99 Luxuriate in neutrals. Set the scene with a full-grain leather upper in beautiful Sail, adding in a white midsole and Pale Vanilla laces for good measure. Finish strong with a textile Swoosh for some textural distinction and a bit of pop. Your outfit is off to a solid start-what's the rest of it going to look like? SKU: FD8631-100
This colourway really reminds me of the Adidas Rivalry Low 86, which has been my go to sneaker this year. Really easy colourway to wear, and it already has that worn look to it, so you’re bang on the money when you say they still few new.
Been saying that for while now. Jordan is selling us trash, if you're comparing it to like hiking boot companies and they're also selling in far smaller quantities. So there's no excuse for this.
The leather on these is next level. Its too well constructed. Loved the color way the swoosh is not weird in anyway the color goes well and the rope laces are new but the look of the sneaker over all is amazing. Its easy to style and these are clean af*
As a Nigerian man, I greatly appreciate that Nike made a shoe dedicated to us. I’m personally still on the fence about copping, but this review gave me better insight.
Yet another craft shoe to add to my collection lol. Just started getting into Jordan’s this year and my only two other pairs are the craft 2’s and 5’s haha. Planning on picking up the craft 6’s here in a bit as well, this line is just so good
Grown man J's all day! I haven't even worn my desert elephants yet. my go to's lately are the craft 4's and i plan on breaking out the craft 5's soon. i'm on the fence with these. i need to see them in hand and if i can get them for below retail then even better. thanks for the review as always
These are SO clean! Been watching them since they dropped and finally picked up a pair for £95 the other day. UK weather means they'll be on ice til next summer but I'm happy to finally get my hands on them; some sail flat laces and I'm gonna be killin em next summer or on my next holiday 😎
I got these and the Laney 14s for 30% below retail on the release day. Just like you said on your last vid/discussion “being a sneakerhead has never been better” 🫡
Definitely IRUKERE, hidden feature that fabric glows(3m yellowish neon color)🔥vibration of naija,I got another pair on the way… just in case I can’t get the union Jordans 1 bephies beauty supply….definitely need those.
Literally got these delivered 10m before this video dropt haha. I agree totally. In europe they did release true snkrs different name though. 'Sail and pale vanilla' witch it kinda sounds like imo
I didn’t see thses in FootLocker stores here (New Orleans) either, i just happened to be on GOAT and they popped up. I like 'em. They look like a good summer/fall shoe, i might just get them.
In case if you haven’t done it already, you should definitely should have sneaker heads in your community on your show and talk about shoes, new releases, etc
I really dig this pair. That interesting material choice is unique and i thought it was chenille like the AJ 8….but i guess it isn’t. The implementation of it works though. Also agree about the spider verse pair….it’s “interesting” that there was a lack in follow through with the second pair….compared to the first. Especially since it’s a featured shoe in the movie. 🤷🏽♂️
As far as I know, Marvel still has a deal with Adidas. The special boxes are friends and family releases that have no monetary exchange therefore, they are allowed to make a marvel inspired design. I believe it still falls under parody law some too but I could be mistaken about that. So, all the GRs get the regular boxes. Also, there are no Marvel or Spidey logos on the shoe.
If that’s the case then it’s understandable. Jordan Brand’s deal is with Sony directly so a deal between Marvel and adidas would make sense as to why a true collaboration package isn’t used.
@@WearTesters this is why Miles had on Adidas in the video game. Movies don't fall into that contract which is why he still has them on in the movie. Media law gets crazy on the cans and cannots.
Chris, I kinda wanna get a pair and pain the “ floor mat “ material gold! Do you think they would look good like that? I think it would make the shoe pop
Cheers to all the resellers getting real jobs !! Really warms my heart :)

Ok I’m gonna hit you up on the next L&F release lol jk
Snkrs us didn’t get em
@@danawhiteisagenius8654 nah the super hyped sneakers are still selling out instantly ahah
Brooo please buy me a size 10.5 and I’ll Zelle you the money
Yeah even better for us, I could finally cop a decent 1s without hype and shit
Honestly the weird material looks like cork lol
I think the same but I ordered form union Los Angeles last week.

Yeah kinda makes the overall look pretty unappealing to me
champagne 1s😂😂
Originally I thought it was cork too.

Same here. Ppl gunna look back years from now wanting them bad.
I’m definitely getting a pair after watching these in hand. I actually love them so I appreciate the video. 👍🏾
For them being under retail easily a shoe to pick up and beat up for the summer, gonna cop myself a pair 🔥
Damn, they on Nike now for 90 $ here in EU but I just boght the air Jordan 2 for 80 $ and I have more then 40 pairs of shoes... but its really hard not to pull the trigger when discounted 😂
"so these resellers are getting real jobs" 😂 more affordable kicks for us. I'm happier than a 90s kid with a lunchable!
😂😂😂

Got mine at an amazing price of 95€!!! Patience is the key, great shoe with awesome colors!

The review I’ve been waiting for 😅
These looks nice!! Like an already vintaged out Neutral Grey 85

As a grown man, I appreciate grown man versions of Jordan 1s.
what classifies a Grown Man Jordan 1?
These were a must grab for me, perfect summer J. Glad resale didn't go anywhere high
This colourway really reminds me of the Adidas Rivalry Low 86, which has been my go to sneaker this year. Really easy colourway to wear, and it already has that worn look to it, so you’re bang on the money when you say they still few new.
I saw this pair today in Paris. The leather is beautiful. Reminded of the UNC to Chicago.
For a all or predominantly white AJ1, I will go for the "Sail" colourway which was released back in 2017 or the 85 High "Neutral Grey".
Wow, hard times when we are happy if a $200 shoe has good leather….
Every shoe at that price point should have the best leather.
Been saying that for while now. Jordan is selling us trash, if you're comparing it to like hiking boot companies and they're also selling in far smaller quantities. So there's no excuse for this.
Then i guess "hard times" has been going on for 20 years.
Unfortunately everything is made in China
You’re never going to get the ‘best’ leather at that price point
It’s been like that for 4 decades and you’re still here so they seem to be doing fine.
I’ll have mine delivered Friday. Love the color blocking and glad to have some great material!!!
Thank you for doing a review!!! Inwas ready to send them back after the sole lining was easy to remove but looking at this gives me relief❤
The leather on these is next level.
Its too well constructed.
Loved the color way the swoosh is not weird in anyway the color goes well and the rope laces are new but the look of the sneaker over all is amazing.
Its easy to style and these are clean af*
*I stayed up late down here in New Zealand just to cop these on the app. Yeeeeah*
Just got these for £98 (UK). They look awesome!
this box looks like that black blue or white gold dress from a few years ago
Another NBHD release and I ❤️ it!!! Great materials and meaning for once!!!! Glad my lady and I were able to cop!!!! 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
I feel like Mocha shoe laces would go crazy on these
I got mine coming from Sole Classics! Can’t wait!
They are on the way and this is the first review im seeing. Glad i grabbed em after all these comments. This pair didnt is a high class low profile 1
I’ve been waiting for these!
I’ll have mine delivered Friday. Love the color blocking and glad to have some great material!!!

Get them bro. The leather is the best of all my jordan 1s. I'm blown away by them.
@@fugitiveminded word bro. definitely considering it
@@JayPro4620 damn if the shoe dedicated to your homeland and you still on the fence that's bad . Nike dropped the ball
@@peaceonearth7142 facts. these joints could of been tougher in my opinion.
@@JayPro4620Nike has had other Nigerian shoes like Giannis’s line which are imo dope.
Bought them Naija Joints on Sale for awesome 120€, man, cheaper than those Plastic Mid's. 🦅
Copped for 113 off goat yesterday...thank God the reseller market is dying lol the leather on these look crazy
Can't wait to get in hand.... Got 2 on the way! Get what you like. Quit riding just for hype.
This makes me really, really happy. Naija.
1st time commenting but long time viewer here😜 Been waiting for this review as they’ve been sitting in stores here in Canada🇨🇦
Yet another craft shoe to add to my collection lol. Just started getting into Jordan’s this year and my only two other pairs are the craft 2’s and 5’s haha. Planning on picking up the craft 6’s here in a bit as well, this line is just so good
People are gonna call these sleepers by the end of the summer
Grown man J's all day! I haven't even worn my desert elephants yet. my go to's lately are the craft 4's and i plan on breaking out the craft 5's soon. i'm on the fence with these. i need to see them in hand and if i can get them for below retail then even better. thanks for the review as always
just ordered them for around 85$ in 12US, together with AJ2 Low Cherrywood, AJ2 Wings and AJ1 High Mauve. All of them for approximately 70-90$. Sick.
I have them in person, they look like an A Ma Manier J1s
These are such great quality i love that people slept on these I’ll beat mine up now
I love how pairs I wouldn’t wear end up being craft pairs with really nice materials
Im thinking of getting these and acryl painting the corky material in total sail, id think that would look so clean
Love your channel! Thank you both! 😎🤙🏻.
These are SO clean!
Been watching them since they dropped and finally picked up a pair for £95 the other day.
UK weather means they'll be on ice til next summer but I'm happy to finally get my hands on them; some sail flat laces and I'm gonna be killin em next summer or on my next holiday 😎
Caught these with that memorial day sale for $135 can't wait to see them in hand. Definitely going to be a go to pair for me with the colorway.
just got these on the nike aff in the netherlands for 71 euro's 😅
Another great review Weartesters. 👏 🎉
Great review thanks for sharing
The material looks like one of those old tables we play Dominos on 😂
Been watching these fly under retail, all these TH-camrs gonna make it hype ..

They are on SNKRS Europe
Just picked up a pair on StockX for $130. Pretty happy about that
Just got them in sale for 120€ thèse are awesome in hands
Unique design. Once again a great review

In case if you haven’t done it already, you should definitely should have sneaker heads in your community on your show and talk about shoes, new releases, etc
Just grabbed mine on the Nike app in Germany for 75 euros
I wanted these bad boys as soon as I seen them last year for preview 👍🏽now I just gotta find out which boutique has it😂

This one gives me a ma maniere 1 vibes but a different color.
Similar vibes to the A Ma Maniere J1s for me
still slightly over retail in size 13 but im considering getting them
I feel your pain
Got mine on farfetch for 112

Yeah, I’m aware of all the legal stuff which is why it makes total sense. Didn’t even think about that.
this is my first Air Jordan 1 High and they're so comfortable, much more than the low's and mid's.
is it just me though?
I’m glad Jordan 1 is available for under retail!!!👍💕
The leather on this is next level
Bro u got to come visit South Africa, Cape Town to be exact👊🏿
Chris, I kinda wanna get a pair and pain the “ floor mat “ material gold! Do you think they would look good like that? I think it would make the shoe pop
Really nice shoe in hand. Glad I copped.
Really like this shoe got it for 160 at feature they allowed a discount code it was great. Love your channel salute
Hibbetts (only one in my state) and dtlr had them I hit dtlr but don’t pick up since I cop off shoe palace didn’t feel like driving
Is it true that the leather is as good as the SBB?
Looks so clean 🥰
Great review
congrats on 800k
That’s cool! I had no idea about that shoe.
Received mine, they are very nice, thank good they are not hype shoes
Love these
Great video but where do you buy all those t-shirts you wear? They 🔥 bro
Really nice shoe in hand. Glad 😄

Neighborhood store release. I really like these and should of copped them on 30% off
Should've
Same bro! I missed it the other day lol
@@No_Hype85 I had it in cart the whole day contemplating if I should cop it
@Leonidas Rozon lol.. yeah I didn't know about the 30% until they were gone 😕
